locking off the other drum. if the brake shoes are still fitted wind the adjuster in to lock the drum or get some one to hold it so it don't move. Now rotate the brake drum two revolutions counting how many turns the prop flange rotates
if the drum turns twice and the flange just under three turn its a 2.78 or if its just over three then its a 3.23 any more than that I would not use them. if there is no markings there is a good chance there 3.23
hope this helps but the sure way is strip down and count the teeth
I'll certainly give that a try thingers crossed they be good to use if not they work ok for chain convertions..

I have pm-ed you my email address. Hopefully you can receive them if not send them.
Got your email, will sort out some pics tomorrow as I have just covered the thing up for the night.
Mind you, I could send you the pics of the trike outside Pro Custom when they finished it, then some later of the rear end - swing arm etc later.
